NCT05554445

Brief Summary

A prospective observational study, which will follow a cohort of adult CD patients who are prescribed the Crohn disease exclusion diet (CDED) during their routine clinical dietary therapy. The diet is composed of three phases, at the end of the first two phases we will evaluate whether the patient achieved remission and at the end of phase three the maintenance of remission. We intend to study achievement and remission rate in association to the diet adaptations made by dieticians at phase 1 and 2, together with patient's choice off food at the third phase under real world clinical setting and patient lifestyle characteristics.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Clinical remission rates will be measured by Harvey-Bradshaw Index at the end of phase 1

    Achievement of clinical remission by the end of the first phase of the diet, will be defined as HBI(Harvey-Bradshaw Index)\<4

    week 6, end of phase 1

  • Clinical remission rates will be measured by Harvey-Bradshaw Index at the end of phase 2

    Achievement of clinical remission by the end of the second phase of the diet will be defined as HBI(Harvey-Bradshaw Index)\<4

    week 12, end of phase 2

  • Rate of patients maintaining clinical remission at the end of phase 3

    Maintaining clinical remission by the end of the third phase of the diet will be defined as HBI(Harvey-Bradshaw Index)\<4

    week 24, end of phase 3

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Associations between adaptations of the first phase of the diet practiced by IBD dieticians and clinical remission

    week 6

  • Associations between adaptations of the second phase of the diet practiced by IBD dieticians and clinical remission

    week 12

  • Associations between food choices during the third phase of the diet made by patients and remission maintenance

    week 24
